Economics and Geography

The program of the Department of Economics and Geography is designed to provide students with the tools and concepts necessary to understand our modern economy, to function more effectively as citizens, and to make sound decisions. A major in economics opens the door to a wide variety of jobs in business, government, finance, and the professions. Economics is particularly useful for those students who plan to enter public service or law, or who plan to go on to graduate study.

Students receiving a Bachelor of Business Administration degree with a major in economics must meet all requirements for that degree, including the pre–requisites and the 21 hours common to all majors in the college.
